Mississippi State athletics director Scott Stricklin will host a monthly radio show starting July 24, the school announced today. The hour-long show will be titled “Hail State with Scott Stricklin” and will be held at various eating establishments around the state, starting with Harvey’s in Starkville.

Stricklin’s show will originate from Tupelo’s Park Heights on Aug. 28, and from Ely’s in Jackson on Sept. 25. Other dates and sites are to be determined.

The show will begin at 7 p.m., with a reception to precede it at 6:30. According to a news release, guests will include “newsmakers (from) around the nation” as well as MSU personnel.
